And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears
[Verse 2]

And I can cry because that's something we've always done
You tell me I'm free of the past now and all those lies
Then offer me the same thing in a different guise
[Trumpet Solo]
[Chorus]
You tell me I can go this far but no more
Try to show me heaven and then slam the door
You offer shelter at a price much too dear
And your kind of love's the kind that soon disappears
